I recently emailed the International Hyperhidrosis Society and they told me about a big event coming up on November 13th, a month from today. Leading dermatologists and other members of the IHHS are hosting an event in Washington D.C. to educate the FDA on the severity and life impact of hyperhidrosis. They hope that if they can inform the FDA that this is a real issue, more funding and studies will follow. The event will be small and private with limited seating. However there is a possibility to be added to the guest list in the event a seat opens up. Otherwise the meeting will be broadcast live and a comment section will allow for viewers to submit comments and feedback.

Also make sure to follow the IHHS newsfeed to stay up-to-date on their progress in this matter. This organization and these people are fighting for us so that we can have a better quality of life, the least we can do is support them.
